For more than 30 years, Russ Plewa, senior vice president commercial banking regional manager – Milwaukee team lead at Racine-based Johnson Financial Group, has gone above and beyond in providing financial solutions to his commercial banking clients, referral partners and the Wisconsin business community, colleagues say.
“Russ provides his clients and prospects with advice and consults on tax exempt financing,” said Vik Gottlieb, senior vice president, senior commercial banking manager for the Milwaukee region at Johnson Financial Group. “He has deep knowledge in M&A transactions and a strong background in manufacturing, which is so important to the fabric of our southeast Wisconsin communities.”
